feature-new

Overview

This skill creates a new isolated feature clone and a complete planning workflow. It validates the feature description, initializes a dedicated clone, and then launches the full development loop to guide feature delivery.

How This Skill Works

The user provides a feature description via ARGUMENTS. If empty or missing, an error is returned. Step 1 creates a feature clone with /create-clone $ARGUMENTS, and Step 2 starts the development workflow by running /feature-loop-scheme.

When to Use It

• Starting a brand-new feature development cycle in a repository
• Isolating work from the main branch to reduce integration risk
• When a detailed feature description is prepared and planning is required
• Onboarding teams to a plan-first workflow for feature delivery
• Enforcing a full planning phase before coding begins

Quick Start

1. Step 1: Provide a non-empty feature description as ARGUMENTS
2. Step 2: Run /create-clone $ARGUMENTS
3. Step 3: Run /feature-loop-scheme to start the workflow

Best Practices

• Provide a detailed feature description via ARGUMENTS to enable thorough planning
• Validate that the feature description is non-empty to avoid errors
• Use /create-clone to establish an isolated feature clone before coding
• Follow with /feature-loop-scheme to drive the full development workflow
• Document key decisions and acceptance criteria within the feature description

Example Use Cases

• Add a new reporting feature with a detailed description and feature clone
• Implement a user profile enhancements feature using the feature-new workflow
• Create an API endpoint feature with full planning and isolated development
• Plan and start a user onboarding flow improvement via feature-new
• Kick off a mobile navigation redesign feature through clone and loop
